A traditionally young and thriving neighborhood, the area is home to many young professionals, immigrants and college students and diverse, vibrant businesses. Union Square, the western gateway to the Allston Village Main Streets retail district, is the convergence of several busy streets and a transit hub for buses that provide access to Brighton, Cambridge and Watertown. The area streetscape may be described as having a “gritty charm”, with a wide and eclectic mix of retail, dining, and entertainment establishments in addition to an aging light industrial component. It lacks consistency, with a variety of building heights and setbacks, sidewalk widths, types of lighting and location of street trees. GUEST STREET AREA PLANNING STUDY 2012 Union Sq / Allston Village Figure 1 – Aerial Map Allston/Brighton is currently undergoing significant evolution. A third of a mile to the north of the Project site, in the BRA Guest Street Area Planning Study area, the Brighton Landing mixed-use development is transforming 15 acres of former industrial property into a mixed-use development of office space, retail and restaurants, residential and sports related uses, as well as a new MBTA commuter rail station. Recent construction and the pipeline of BRA-approved residential projects in the area are indicative of the evolution. Approximately 650 new construction rental apartments units have been delivered since 2012, and pre-construction projects with approvals currently account for approximately 700 additional units to be delivered. 31 North Beacon Street, Allston Page 5 of 14 Figure 2 – Union Square Photo Residential development is proposed in the immediate vicinity, including at 37 North Beacon Street, where in 2013 the Boston Redevelopment Authority approved a 5-story, 41-unit project with a FAR of 3.56 and 35 parking spaces. The condominium building at 15 North Beacon Street, constructed in 1989, contains ground floor retail in a 4 ½ story wing fronting the street and rises to 9 stories beyond. A short distance away at 533 Cambridge Street, a 4- and 5-story condominium building with 44 units was completed in 2008. Figure 3 – 533 Cambridge Street Photo Figure 4 – 15 North Beacon Street Photo 31 North Beacon Street, Allston Page 6 of 14 Planning Context The Project site is located at the southern boundary of the Guest Street Area Planning Study area, the 2013 BRA study that was formulated to shape development of this underutilized area into a vibrant mixed-use district. Everett Street is characterized as an important connector through the district from North Beacon Street to the new MBTA commuter station, North Allston and eventually the Charles River. It is also identified as a “Neighborhood Street” with a landscaped setback zone of 10 feet from sidewalk to face of building. North Beacon Street is identified as an extension of “Main Streets” from the Allston Village Main Streets district. It characterizes the North Beacon Street boundary as primarily residential with a potential FAR of up to 1.50 and height up to 4 stories, though existing buildings are a mix of heights and densities along this street, in Union Square and in nearby areas beyond the boundaries of the study. Figure 5 – BRA Guest Street Area Planning Study Connections Diagram The City has identified, as outlined in Boston 2030 Housing Plan, a need for 20,000 new units of workforce housing in areas affordable to middle class residents where there is good access to public transit. The report encourages infill and density along existing and proposed transit lines, increased bike-ability and walkability of neighborhoods, and reform of parking standards to accommodate non-automobile centric development. The Boston Transportation Department parking guidelines for Allston/Brighton recommend 0.75 spaces per unit when within a 10 minute walk of a MBTA station. 31 North Beacon Street, Allston Page 7 of 14 Development Site The Project site is 9,895 sf in area. An existing 12-unit rooming house, a freestanding garage, and an asphalt parking lot will be demolished as part of the project. The owner and project proponent is Mr. Gerry Bickoff, whose family-owned commercial cleaning business is located across the street from the development site. Founded in 1977, Commercial Cleaning Service is a full-service janitorial company specializing in condominium association and apartment building cleaning. Figure 6 – Existing Site Photo Growing-up in Allston/Brighton on Kilsyth and Colborne Roads, and being educated at the Baldwin, Edison and English High Schools have had a tremendous impact on Gerry’s life and success. His deep roots in the neighborhood and community make him proud to propose this new mixed-use development. PROJECT DESCRIPTION Project Overview The Project is oriented to the growing demographic of smaller, environmentally conscious households with low car ownership, who want to live in a vibrant, dynamic and transit accessible neighborhood of the City. The new 32,110 gsf building will provide approximately 2,170 of retail space on the ground floor and 4 levels of residential rental housing above in a mix of Studio, 1- and 2-bedroom apartments. Three of the 20 units will be affordable per the City’s inclusionary zoning requirements. 31 North Beacon Street, Allston Page 8 of 14 Building Program: 4 studio apartments, approximately 600 sf in size 8 one-bedroom apartments, approximately 815-830 sf in size 8 two-bedroom apartments, ranging in size from 840 sf to 1,070 sf Ground level retail and residential amenity space Basement level vehicle parking and indoor bicycle storage Figure 7 – Aerial View 1 Urban Design The proposed Project is a five-story building with a total of 20 residential rental units and 1 tenant- leased commercial unit. Located at the intersection of North Beacon and Everett Streets and 250 feet from Union Square, the building’s massing negotiates between the varied scales and character of Everett, North Beacon, and Cambridge Streets and Brighton Avenue. The building is being designed to showcase appealing contemporary architecture and to feature environmentally friendly materials and energy efficient systems. The exterior materials have been chosen to complement the brick apartment and commercial buildings and clapboard residential buildings in the surrounding neighborhoods.

  • Chapter 3—Existing Conditions: Bowker Overpass
    Massachusetts Turnpike Boston Ramps and Bowker Overpass Study December 2015 Chapter 3—Existing Conditions: Bowker Overpass 3.1 INTRODUCTION This chapter describes the analysis of the Bowker Overpass sub-area of the Massachusetts Turnpike — Boston Ramps Study. As in Chapter 2, which discusses the larger study area, this section summarizes existing transportation conditions during a typical workday, emphasizing the peak-commuting hour. This section also reviews crash data and land use conditions. The Transit Data and Environmental Conditions provided in Chapter 2 apply to the Bowker Overpass sub-area of the study. 3.2 TRAFFIC CONDITIONS Developing a base knowledge of current traffic conditions fosters an understanding of where congestion occurs now and where it likely would occur in the future. The first step in calculating traffic congestion requires using current or recent turning- movement and traffic counts. Traffic counts were obtained along the Massachusetts Turnpike between the Allston Tolls and Ted Williams Tunnel, and at specific intersections throughout the study area. The volumes used in this analysis are presented in Section 3.2.1. Section 3.2.2 summarizes system performance. 3.2.1 Existing (2010) Traffic Volumes The Bowker Overpass delineates the Back Bay and Fenway/Kenmore neighborhoods, and runs roughly along the Muddy Brook between the Emerald Necklace/Back Bay Fens and the Charles River Esplanade. It connects Boylston Street and Fenway with Storrow Drive over the Massachusetts Turnpike, Commonwealth Avenue, and Beacon Street (Figure 3-1). The Bowker is also known as the Charlesgate Overpass, as Charlesgate is the name of the roadway that the overpass carries.

Heath _________________________________________________________________________________________Mayor Director HOST COMMUNITY AGREEMENT ADVISORY GROUP RECOMMENDATION DATE: April 29, 2019 TO: Mayor Ruthanne Fuller FROM: Host Community Agreement Advisory Group SUBJECT: Host Community Agreement Recommendation for CNA Stores, Inc., proposing a marijuana retailer at 747 Beacon Street EXECUTIVE SUMMARY CNA Stores, Inc. is proposing to become a recreational marijuana retailer at 747 Beacon Street, in Newton Centre. Members of the management team met with the Host Community Agreement (HCA) Advisory Group on April 11, 2019. The applicant is a service disabled veteran-led company with a management team experienced in small business development, technology, security, and government relations. The team does not contain any individuals with experience in the marijuana or 747 Beacon Street retail industry or community relations. The site presents substantial transportation and safety challenges for the high turnover nature of the use. The site does not currently have dedicated parking. The applicant has an agreement to lease the parking stalls located behind 208 Sumner Street. This parking area, currently utilized primarily by employees of surrounding businesses, is accessed via a narrow, relatively steep drive which leads to a parking area with difficult maneuverability. Pedestrian access is also difficult from the parking area to the site due to the poor visibility of the driveway and the auto repair use located between the parking area and the proposed site. For these reasons, and those discussed in more detail below, the HCA Advisory Group does not recommend moving forward with a Host Community Agreement for CNA’s marijuana retailer at 747 Beacon Street.
